The research behind Relacore
The connection between stress and belly fat.
Anxiety and stress are common reactions to everyday life. Research has shown there's a link between stress, tension, and excess belly fat. High levels of cortisol, a stress hormone, can cause pound after pound of excess body fat to accumulate around the waist.
Currently, the only known way to reduce cortisol production is to reduce stress. Anti-anxiety agents, whether natural or synthetically derived, are arguably the best solution for the excess cortisol that can cause stubborn abdominal fat.
In conjunction with a sensible diet and exercise program, Relacore helps reduce the stress that causes cortisol production, thereby helping to reduce belly fat.
A natural way to fight stress-related belly fat.
Relacore uses several natural dietary substances that have been shown to reduce stress and improve mood. These natural substances have enjoyed a long history of use and have been proven effective in clinical trials:
- Magnolia (Magnolia officinalis). This ingredient has been used for thousands of years in traditional Chinese medicine for a variety of disorders. Modern clinical trials are investigating the neolignan isomers contained in magnolia for their stress-relieving benefits.
- Chinese Skullcap (Scutellaria baicalensis). Scutellaria has also been used in traditional Chinese medicine for years. More recent studies in the USA, Russia, Japan, and China suggest that the plant has the capacity to reduce the effects of stress.
- Passionflower (Passiflora incarnata). A recent 4-week, double blind, placebo-controlled randomized trial showed passionflower to be effective at reducing stress. German and British Compendia have approved the internal use of Passionflower for nervous restlessness, stress, and sleep disorders.
- Magnesium and vitamin B6. A study published in the Journal of Women's Health & Gender-Based Medicine showed a synergistic effect of magnesium and vitamin B6 when used together to minimize anxiety-related symptoms.
